Small Scaled French 19th Century Settee

About the Item

An elegant French early 20th century small scale settee in the Napoleon III style. This French settee is a timeless piece of furniture that embodies classic elegance. Its gracious curved back with built-in lumbar support and rolled arms are typical of seating during this period and add to the settee's sophistication. The unusually small size makes it perfect for a bedroom or a child's room, while its scrolled back design adds a touch of uniqueness and character. The settee has been stripped down to the muslin and is waiting for you to choose just the right fabric. Measuring 32 inches in height by 57 inches in width by 31 inches in depth, it has a seat height of 13 inches and an arm height of 20 inches. Overall, this Napoleon III style settee is a must-have for anyone who values classic elegance and timeless design. Please note that this sofa has been stripped to the muslin and is ready to be re-upholstered in the fabric of your choice. Please ask any specific questions about the condition of the sofa in advance. We always recommend reupholstering vintage seating before using. All seating is sold as is. We will gladly send you more photos if you ask.  Ref #: SFA0323-02 Dimensions: 32”H x 57”W x 31”D (13” Seat Height and 20” Arm Height)
